(Help needed) root permissions to .sh #665

Open pahapoika opened 8 years ago

pahapoika commented 8 years ago

So how to grant root permissions to bourne script?

(The script already does mount the /data/ to rm) So im making flashable .zip that would delete from /data/system/ but su/xbin/busybox rm -rf /data/system/(filename) doesn't delete the file. So is there any other way to make that zip delete that file from that directory?

Thanks!

TWRP is running as root, so don't use su. And TWRP's busybox is in /sbin. But you should probably simply use "rm".

@that1 i ran to another problem. The file is just rw for owner and im not owner of the file. So is there command that you can run on updater-script or in .sh file to change the permissions to rw-rw-rw?

Other way would be replace with empty file. So how would be that possible?

Root should be able to delete any file. But you can also use chmod.

@that1 the file can be deleted in terminal emulator by commands su su/xbin/busybox rm /data/system/(nameoffile)

But it does not delete from recovery.

When running the rm command via adb shell while in TWRP (or from TWRP's built-in terminal emulator), what error message are you getting?
